We have so much that we want to update you on and so many pictures that we want to show you but, unfortunetly, our internet is down due to some virus so it will be a while till we can get the pictures posted. So I am just going to quickly update you on the happenings of this week and then when our internet is up and running (hopefully sometime this next week), I'll post more pictures.

Our week started with orientation and was followed by the beginnings of what will be our jobs when work crews are not here. For Mike that involves maintanence, repair and upkeep of the camp. For me (Megin) that involves accounting and organizational stuff. So Mike dove in head first (almost literally) into repairing some leaking toilets and sinks. He also did prep work for the upcoming work crew like buying supplies, moving over 200 large bricks from one place to another (about 23 wheelbarrel trips), and bending some rebar. And I started working on some year-end reports for the PR government and GMI. Our week was both exciting and challenging!

Tomorrow (Sat, Feb 23), our first work crew comes. Even though they are coming in at 4:30 am, they are excited to start working so Sat will be a heavy work day for us. Our first project with the work crew will be to construct an entrance to our chapel. So on Saturday, we will be using a jackhammer to put 6 large holes into the concrete floor for the pillars to the entrance and we will be bending rebar. We will take before and after pictures to post so everyone can see exactly what we did.

We will try to update as often as possible (obviously that will be easier once we have our internet back)! Thanks for your prayers!
Love,
Mike and Megin
